MithrilForge Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 great effort so far can't wait to see em all finished ,it'll look like a Ad-mech howling griffons force what scheme i.e. halved or quartered did you decide to use on the Onager??... cheers, Mithril Halved on the front, and then the rest in red with key features picked out in yellow. No way I could neatly quarter it! i hear you there,its too awkward to do quartering with, one of the fandom sites that quoted imperial armour etc said that the scheme was halved red with yellow? but the new dex shows the trooper in a quartered scheme...go figure it would have been nice to see some studio Eavy Metal Voss Prime units but I guess we just get to choose ourselves... look fwd to the Onager cheers,Mithril Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339761-new-edition-new-codex-new-army-voss-prime/page/2/#findComment-4906272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruralguardhipcat Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 I think the half is still an official combo too: the yellow / red vertical split is illustrated too as being the iconography of Voss Prime Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339761-new-edition-new-codex-new-army-voss-prime/page/2/#findComment-4906291 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruralguardhipcat Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 Just a quick observation: I'm reading Graham McNeill's Forges of Mars trilogy at the moment and there are a handful of Voss Prime references. Most notably, Voss Prime assigning three ships to a Mechanicus fleet to repay a "Debita Fabricate".

ruralguardhipcat Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 [battlefield data inload begins] Situation: Probability of enemy aircraft deployment: 85% Response: Deploy Icarus Array Outcome: Likelihood of enemy aircraft destruction: 98% [End battlefield data inload] Thought for the Day: Getting a neat Yellow / Red split is hard! I think the base needs some work & some battlefield debris.

anarchistscourge Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 You have pulled this off really well, looks awesome! My only comment would be to maybe put some gold / silver or something on the armour plates covering the legs jus to make them pop a bit Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339761-new-edition-new-codex-new-army-voss-prime/page/2/#findComment-4908375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Agreed, awesome work but just needs metal trimmings! It looks much better than I was expecting... Way better!

ruralguardhipcat Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 Thanks Xisor, anarchistscourge, and mithrilforge. I like the end result, so glad others like too. Thanks for the helpful comments re some more metal work / contrast for the legs too. I'll get some metallic colour on and more details on the base.

ruralguardhipcat Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share Posted October 14, 2017 Quite awesome. I love how the decal defines the separation. Thank you. I struggled to get the split completely neat, so used the transfer to help correct (hide!) that. But really happy with how the little force is coming along.

Vel'Cona Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I love that paint scheme. It's eclectic but bold and I think you've kept the lines very clean overall. Definitely going to look incredibly striking on the table! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339761-new-edition-new-codex-new-army-voss-prime/page/2/#findComment-4909968 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulfast Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 A question, when playing as an army from Voss Prime, what would be the best forgeworld trait to use? I was thinking to use Mars as Voss Prime is called the right arm of Mars. But what would you other chose?

ruralguardhipcat Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Personally, I'm into the painting, modelling and backstory side most and play / game infrequently and only socially. So I'd go for Mars: it seems to fit the background that the "Right Hand of Mars" would base it's strategy, forces, deployment on those of Mars.

Really, as long as you can rationalize it any FW can make sense to some extent, but from a purely background perspective Mars Dogma makes the most sense for Voss Prime. I'd actually really like to see Cawl painted up in this quartered scheme . . .

ruralguardhipcat Posted October 23, 2017 Author Share Posted October 23, 2017 Every Adeptus Mechanicus force needs a leader, and I've finished work on the Techpriest Dominus. This isn't a quartered scheme, but I think the Martian red robes with yellow detailing works. It is now the equivalent of the entire Start Collecting box that is painted. Next up, the Rangers...
